Puppy Program

The perfect beginning to your furry friends first groom.

Your puppy enjoys fortnightly visits to our salon over a twelve-week period.

During these sessions, we focus on familiarising your pup with grooming practices early on, aiming to instil confidence and ease any grooming-related anxieties. We introduce them gradually to the sounds of the salon, such as clippers and hairdryers, teaching them to stay calm during grooming sessions. They learn to enjoy baths, shampooing, conditioning, and the sensation of being brushed.

Each session includes new experiences for your puppy, starting with trimming around sensitive areas like the eyes and hygiene spots, as well as nail trimming and paw pad care. By the end of the twelve weeks, they'll have experienced their first complete professional grooming session.

Every dog adjusts to grooming at their own pace, some taking to it quickly while others need more time to acclimatise fully. A well-behaved pup is essential for achieving the best results. Contact us now to give your puppy the best start in their grooming journey.

Introduction

As puppies explore their new surroundings and embrace their puppyhood, their first grooming experience can indeed seem daunting. At MK Canines, we understand the significance of this initial grooming session and the importance of easing your pup into the process with care and consideration.

Familiarity

In a young puppy's world, familiarity with the sights, sounds, and scents of the grooming salon holds significant importance. With the potential for overwhelm in the presence of other dogs, the Puppy Pack service stands out as a beacon of reassurance, providing a comforting environment that surrounds your young companion with the familiarities they need.

Positive Reinforcement

Encouraging positive behavior is a cornerstone of our approach. When your pup demonstrates cooperation during eye and face trimming, we make sure to acknowledge and reward their good behavior. Crafting a positive experience during the formative weeks and months of your puppy's life is paramount to us.
